SUNDAY POST ~ '...Good luck, bad luck, same' comes from an old Asian story bringing us the concept that essentially whatever happens is all the same. It is in the perception that we begin to interpret with dualistic thinking; rather than seeing it all for what it is. Western society is noted for judging something as good, bad, high, low rather than viewing life as a neverending circle. Given I was reared with western thinking, I frequently get into the 'shoulds, woulds, coulds.' Creative thinking has helped me to use well, live well 'what is'. Perfect I am not, still a work in progress. What do you think?

'Remembering' ~ My Mom, Nana and Aunt Ginny as almost having 3 mothers along with my Dad. They all taught me love, respect and enjoying the simple things in life. Each person was unique and thus I got the different yet similar perspectives of these concepts and went on to explore and expand on gifts from my first four teachers. Another significant person was my maternal great grandmother. A very successful nurse in her own right; I only had her in my life for the first six years of my life; yet I still remember the deep warmth, love and respect she gave me.To all those who have gone before me; I rest on shoulders of 'giants', strong, loving women and men. Grateful. ^_^

Hugs and namaste,and
